Ive also used a plastic coat hanger (better than wire because it isnt sharp) to snap them out of the Tuff Guy act..
    Any thanks for the info, better safe than sorry.
    It's what hatchlings do I have been tag by many hatchling obviously the more you have the more it happens, the good news they grow out of it very fast, I have been tagged by maybe 3 or 4 adults max.

    I find a spritz from a water bottle immediately puts them into hiding mode and is very effective. Some of my subadults seem to think every time the tub is opened its feeding time. Spray bottle with water for the win.
    Stay in peace and not pieces.

    The paper towel trick works great and easier if they do strike at something. Really does calm them down. Got me over my fear when the Carpet I had was always striking and was afraid to put my hand in the cage.
